Sun and Sand Minichu

far from wintry England
into caressing warmth of a tropical beach 
sun and sand

fun and frolick
in a lazy temperate breach
uptick

recoup
recharge, wild peach
sloop

far from wintry England
in a lazy temperate breach
sloop

Your description of the warm and sunny beach reads like you have been there before. Thanks for dropping back by my poem to tell me you liked the change. I do not expect you to change my placement in the contest. I just wanted to make the poem correct but I could have used the term poetic license in what I wrote. Sara
